A mother and her 7-year-old daughter start a flower shop to help others.
Two-years-ago, in the picturesque community of Old Town Maine, Jess Francis with her daughter Arabella decided to do something to help those in need.
So, they began selling flowers from a small stand on their front yard.
The first year they donated their earnings to "Ending Hunger in Maine," and last year to the Maine Parkinson's Society.

This year, they opened a small store front at 211 Main Street, in Old Town.
There for limited hours, they sell flowers and other goods, with 25% of their earnings donated to a local hospital, Northern Light NICU.
This is a beautiful story of a mother and daughter helping others in their community.
Editor's Note:
Dear Reader: This is a very popular local Old Town story with all credit to Arabella. But Jess runs it and Arabella joins in and learns the value of helping others, which is why I shared this story with you.

Non-professional flower sales in Maine are likely seasonal, as wintertime snow will take its toll.
